Used this with a ton of different combinations. I tried it with the 7 cost ooze on a druid, i used emboldens along with the 10 cost board and deck buffs, was very impressed with it but it felt like any rush deck just tore me apart waiting to draw something. I remembered the 2 cost oozling pally decks of old and it hit me, libram pally, mixed with every possible buff they had, this included sidequests, secrets, etc. My most successful combination used only 5 essential minions. The reason being, the less minions you had gave you an extra option, the 3 cost draw your lowest cost card and give it +2/+2. With the lack of minions, you could coin out a buffed rot draw on turn 3, then here is where i had 2 different approaches, you could also add the 3 cost dragons with lifesteal, it happens where the dragons get a buff instead of the rots, but in that case you could play more defensively and use them to drag out mana until you can throw out your ooze and a handful of buffs to end turn something like 2 7/8’s. Most people concede as soon as they see that ooze get big, but in the offchance youre fighting a mage, shaman, or priest, prepare to watch your minions go poof like nothing. My other option was to use the epic 3 cost cards that copy any spell cast and deathrattles them into the deck, i added extra 3 costs, because I feel this deck needed to have a stronger early game, it has to control the board and I was consistently at a toss up between going for more aoes, and sacrificing my board burst, or sacrificing heals and aoes entirely for a more rush style. I wouldnt say i tested every approach but i at least attempted it. The truth is, this card set the bar very high but fell short on almost every level. Its cost makes it awkward to buff, and if you throw it out as a 1/2 on turn 3 its almost always dead. Dont get me wrong, in the right deck it can literally be that big play card you need, but its potential just falls short when you sink 4 buffs to get the thing big and watch youre entire strategy crumble from a 4 cost sheep.
